Default Re: 1960's Tricity Viscount cooker

Another Belling fan here. I used to have an early 1980`s format cooker which was one of the first to have 4 halogen hobs, and it was solid/heavy.

I sold it, for the pitiful sum of £50 3 years ago (still in amazing condition/working order) because I fancied something new. I bought Zanussi.................

I stuck it for 18 months and could stick it no more, there were so many design issues with it that I stopped using it completely in the end because it was a pain in the backside - the list is too long and I can't be bothered to write a novel but it was all because of cheapness.

Then as I was at my wits end and looking at changing it again, Ebay came to the rescue. I managed to stumble across another Belling Format cooker, from the late 80`s, BRAND SPANKING NEW!! It took a 500 mile round trip to collect it but I was delighted to go back to something decent and solidly built
